Winslow Dynasty - Life Album - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Three CD set. 2019 UK collection. For the very first time you can now get your hands on a definitive collection of the funk and soul sensation that is The Bar-Kays. Robinsongs are proud to be the first tag to combine the Warner Brothers, Volt, Stax and Mercury repertoire to make this a unique compilation that covers the period from 1967 through 1989. The package features every single one of their Top 10 R&B Hits 'Soul Finger', 'Son Of Shaft', 'Shake Your Rump To The Funk', 'Too Hot To Stop', 'Holy Ghost', 'Move Your Boogie Body', 'Boogie Body Land', 'Hit And Run', 'Do It (Let Me See You Shake)', 'Certified True' and 'Freakshow On The Dancefloor'. Other tracks of note included in this package are 'Let's Have Some Fun', 'Dirty Dancer', 'Attitudes' and the full-length album version of 'Money Talks' plus the dance floor smash 'Sexomatic'. The history of the Bar-Kays is one of tragedy and triumph, plane crash to Gold Discs, Otis Redding to Isaac Hayes, which is all wonderfully summed up in a 24 page color booklet including an essay by Christian John Wikane, a New York based music journalist with contributions by the band's former front man Larry Dodson.

Three CD set containing tracks taken from three labels MCA, Warner Brothers and Epic Records. A must for all Funk and Soul fans, capturing all of the greatest hits in one collection. A '70s music night without Rose Royce would be unthinkable. In soul music terms, it would be like the '60s without The Temptations, or the '80s without The Gap Band. That's because the Los Angeles group played an important role in spreading Disco-Funk. Rose Royce's music defined by it's blend of funky grooves and soft romantic ballads, was part of the soundtrack to those heady days, when the whole world seemed to be a big disco ball dancing through space. This Rose Royce 'Definitive Collection' includes all the extended versions of the biggest hits including the ballads 'Love Don't Live Here Anymore', 'Wishing On A Star', 'I Wanna Get Next To You' and the Funk anthems 'Car Wash', 'It Makes You Feel Like Dancin', 'Is It Love You're After' and 'Do Your Dance'. Also included is the full 12-minute version of 'RR Express'. Producer Norman Whitfield, known for his work with The Temptations and The Undisputed Truth was the brainchild behind Rose Royce, and signed them to his Whitfield Records tag, which was backed by Warner Brothers. He produced the majority of the tracks in this package, and you can feel his influence in these recordings.

While Miami Beach is well known as a vacation spot, it's signature mix of house, Chill-out and lounge music is also becoming a landmark. The SFP group of labels became the Global night clubber's soundtrack as DJs all over the four continents like Danny Rampling, Carl Cox, and/or Pete Tong, spun and compiled many tracks released by SFP's labels on more than a thousand different compilations. This 4 track single, produced by Frederic Faupin, is from the SFP offshoot Soul groove. All original 12Inch mixes.
